With the cooler temperatures rolling in and winter on its way, now is the time to get heating systems inspected and tuned up by a qualified heating specialist. The team at Cypress Heating & Air Conditioning Covina CA can help explain why scheduling this maintenance is imperative and that the best time to do this is during the fall before the system is used for the season.
Identifying Problems
By identifying problems with your heating system early, it allows a contractor to take action on what may become a bigger problem later on. It also allows them to take preventative measures by recommending replacement parts or other work that may need to be done that can prevent a much more expensive repair.
Saving Money
Like any piece of equipment, a furnace that is maintained regularly has a longer life. The average life of a furnace can range from 13 to 20 years. Without regularly scheduled maintenance, the possibility of a heating system breaking down in the dead of winter is much greater.
The cost of having to replace a unit seven years sooner can be a burden on anyone’s budget. The warranty of a unit also comes in to play because if the system is maintained as it should be, replacement parts should be covered and will not cost the homeowner.
Safety
Heat systems often pose a safety risk if they’re not inspected due to their ability to cause fires or carbon monoxide poisoning. This is especially important if it is a gas powered furnace. If there are any cracks or holes in the furnace’s heat exchange it could let out exhaust gas containing carbon monoxide.
Another thing the expert will check is the pilot light to make sure that it is burning properly. If the flame is not blue, but yellow or orange instead, this can indicate improper burning. Carbon Monoxide is very dangerous and hard to detect but is easy to prevent with the proper precautions.
Fast Service
Once the season begins, it is hard to get a technician out the same day if something were to happen to your HVAC system. Technicians have greater flexibility when they’re scheduled ahead of time.
